Students who have been assigned a Panther ID (PID) number with Florida International University under tuition Plan-B will continue to pay normal tuition and fees to their home university (not FIU).
In order to secure your exchange with FIU during Fall 2022 and/or Spring 2023, please complete the below-steps immediately:
Required Steps:
- Create your MyAccounts Log In: MyAccounts is FIU's central authentication system. It provides students with a centralized method for changing passwords and managing their online identity at FIU. (please remember to write down your Panther ID and Password in a secure place):
STEPS:- Go to MyAccounts
- Sign in using your Panther ID and default password. If you are logging in for the very first time, your default password is the date of birth in the format: ddMonYYYY. Your password is CASE SENSITIVE. You must CAPITALIZE the first letter of the MONTH. Therefore, if your date of birth is April 20, 2009, then your default password is 20Apr2009.
- After you change your default password, be sure to set your security questions. This will allow you to reset your password in the future.
- Once your MyAccounts login has been processed, you will then have access to an FIU Panthermail (email) account and to the MyFIU student portal.
- For technical assistance with MyAccounts login, please contact the FIU Division of Information Technology (IT) on the AskIT portal or by phone at (305) 348-2284.

- FIU-Email account (Panthermail): Go to MyAccounts to acquire your FIU Username, click on Look up your FIU Username. Once you have your FIU Username and Panther ID number, login to your FIU Panthermail by using your FIU Username and password.
